Grey Souls
For one victim, how many culprits?
Directed by Yves Angelo
Produced by Epithète Films, France 2 Cinéma
A morally murky procedural set in 1917 that uses a child's murder to interrogate institutional corruption, personal vendettas, and the slipperiness of guilt itself.
In 1917, the old rivalry between a prosecutor and a judge resurfaces during a police investigation into the murder of a child.
